AVIAN SPECIES DISTRIBUTION ALONG A LAND-USE MOSAIC: PUERTO RICO AS A CASE STUDY Avian distribution responds to the spatial arrangement of landscape attributes, and land-use is one of the determinants of these attributes. I used data from the Puerto Rican Breeding Bird Survey (PRBBS) and from a digital land-use and road map of Puerto Rico to examine how bird assemblages are affected by land-use practices. I drew a 200-m buffer along 42 PRBBS routes distributed along the whole island of Puerto Rico representing data from 1997 to 2001 and in each route a GIS extracted information on percent of land-use types (7 types) for each route. A non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis (NMS) that ordinates bird species based on land-use types showed two main clusters: the first associated with montane forest (lower montane, submontane and coffee) and the second with disturbed habitat conditions (agriculture, urban, dry forest and pasture). In addition all endemic species were part of the cluster associated with montane forest and most of the exotic species were part of the cluster representing bird species that can resist disturbed habitat conditions. Conservation efforts to preserve native, and in particular endemic birds in Puerto Rico, should focus on the preservation and restoration of montane forests.

THE EFFECT OF GENOTYPING ERRORS ON POPULATION SIZE ESTIMATES DERIVED FROM FECAL SAMPLING Previous research suggests that errors associated with non-invasive genetic sampling can bias population estimates derived from mark-recapture analysis. This study attempts to determine the magnitude of the bias using field data. Genotypes were generated at eight microsatellite loci for red wolf (Canis rufus) fecal material (scat) collected in the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge (ARNWR) in northeastern North Carolina. Scats were collected along refuge roads during three sampling periods. Genotype data were replicated at each locus. Four acceptance criteria for unique genotypes were created to simulate differing levels of genotyping errors and program CAPTURE was used to generate population size estimates. The amplification success rate for eight loci was 56%. Under the least stringent and most error prone criterion for accepting unique genotypes, CAPTURE estimated a population size of 71 individuals. This estimate is almost 6 times larger than the known population size of 12 individuals. Under the most stringent criterion CAPTURE estimated a population size of 17 which is closer to the true population size. Of the 12 known individuals, 11 were detected with the scat sampling. These results suggest that if genotyping errors are accounted for, reasonable population size estimates can be obtained using non-invasive genetic sampling.

RESOLVING CONFLICTS BETWEEN CORMORANTS AND FISHERIES: IS U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE SIDESTEPPING FEDERAL PROTECTIONS FOR MIGRATORY BIRDS? Double-crested Cormorants are federally protected migratory birds that have experienced significant population growth. The abundance of these piscivorous birds has led to conflicts with fisheries and allegations of harm to other colonial waterbirds. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) responded by proposing a Public Resource Depredation Order to allow state and federal agencies

FIRST, members must not supply CFIC with their company email addresses. That is, companies that they work for. (If you own the company, that's different.) All email on a company's server can be read by any supervisor. All it takes is one pro vaccine activist to get hold of our mobilization alerts to throw a monkey wrench in all of our efforts. Thus, do not supply me with a company email address. We can help you get an alternative to that if necesary. SECONDLY, CFIC needs members' email addresses to supply important information to mobilize parents to do things that advances our goal to enact our legislative reforms of the exemptions from vaccination. That has always been CFIC's sole agenda. CFIC has been able to keep the membership fee to zero because we don't communicate via snail mail. But people change their addresses frequently and forget to update CFIC. When this happens over the years, that member is essentually blind and deaf to us, and is no longer of any value to the coalition---your fellow parents. Therefore, it warrants me to require that members supply CFIC with their most permanent email account. That means the email address of the company in which you are paying a monthly fee for internet access, be it broadband or dialup service.

Conservation assessments may lead more directly to effective conservation action if they are reoriented to inform conservation decisions. Toward this goal, we evaluated the relative priority for conservation of 7 sites proposed for the first forest reserves in the Union of the Comoros, an area with high levels of endemism and rapidly changing land uses in the western Indian Ocean. Through the analysis of 30 indicator variables measured at forest sites and nearby villages, we assessed 3 prioritization criteria at each site: conservation value, threat to loss of biological diversity from human activity, and feasibility of reserve establishment. Our results indicated 2 sites, Yim´er´eand Hassera-Ndreng´e, were priorities for conservation action. Our approach also informed the development of an implementation strategy and enabled an evaluation of previously unexplored relations among prioritization criteria.

  • The Cathedral and the Bazaar
    The Cathedral and the Bazaar Linux is subversive. Who would have thought even five years ago (1991) that a world- class operating system could coalesce as if by magic out of part-time hacking by several thousand developers scattered all over the planet, connected only by the tenuous strands of the Internet? Certainly not I. By the time Linux swam onto my radar screen in early 1993, I had already been involved in Unix and open-source development for ten years. I was one of the first GNU contributors in the mid-1980s. I had released a good deal of open-source software onto the net, developing or co-developing several programs (nethack, Emacs's VC and GUD modes, xlife, and others) that are still in wide use today. I thought I knew how it was done. Linux overturned much of what I thought I knew. I had been preaching the Unix gospel of small tools, rapid prototyping and evolutionary programming for years. But I also believed there was a certain critical complexity above which a more centralized, a priori approach was required. I believed that the most important software (operating systems and really large tools like the Emacs programming editor) needed to be built like cathedrals, carefully crafted by individual wizards or small bands of mages working in splendid isolation, with no beta to be released before its time. Linus Torvalds's style of development—release early and often, delegate everything you can, be open to the point of promiscuity—came as a surprise. No quiet, reverent cathedral-building here—rather, the Linux community seemed to resemble a great babbling bazaar of differing agendas and approaches (aptly symbolized by the Linux archive sites, who'd take submissions from anyone) out of which a coherent and stable system could seemingly emerge only by a succession of miracles.

  • Impacts of Land Use on Biodiversity: Development of Spatially Differentiated Global Assessment Methodologies for Life Cycle Assessment
    DISS. ETH NO. xx Impacts of land use on biodiversity: development of spatially differentiated global assessment methodologies for life cycle assessment A dissertation submitted to ETH ZURICH for the degree of Doctor of Sciences presented by LAURA SIMONE DE BAAN Master of Sciences ETH born January 23, 1981 citizen of Steinmaur (ZH), Switzerland accepted on the recommendation of Prof. Dr. Stefanie Hellweg, examiner Prof. Dr. Thomas Koellner, co-examiner Dr. Llorenç Milà i Canals, co-examiner 2013 In Gedenken an Frans Remarks This thesis is a cumulative thesis and consists of five research papers, which were written by several authors. The chapters Introduction and Concluding Remarks were written by myself. For the sake of consistency, I use the personal pronoun ‘we’ throughout this thesis, even in the chapters Introduction and Concluding Remarks. Summary Summary Today, one third of the Earth’s land surface is used for agricultural purposes, which has led to massive changes in global ecosystems. Land use is one of the main current and projected future drivers of biodiversity loss. Because many agricultural commodities are traded globally, their production often affects multiple regions. Therefore, methodologies with global coverage are needed to analyze the effects of land use on biodiversity. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a tool that assesses environmental impacts over the entire life cycle of products, from the extraction of resources to production, use, and disposal. Although LCA aims to provide information about all relevant environmental impacts, prior to this Ph.D. project, globally applicable methods for capturing the effects of land use on biodiversity did not exist.
